The Supplement Beast Mode And Its Effect On Anaerobic Power, Isaac Majors
The Supplement Beast Mode And Its Effect On Anaerobic Power, Isaac Majors
Kinesiology Student Research
Anaerobic metabolism is the production of energy in the absence of oxygen and anaerobic power can be measured as either mean or peak power output in exercise that lasts thirty seconds or less. Power is force times velocity and it is measured in Watts. Research has shown that caffeine has a positive effect on sports performance and today many athletes use it as an ergogenic aid. Caffeine’s affect on maximal anaerobic power however are less understood.

Mind Body And The Effects Of Music, Laura Huffstuttler, Amber Kunes, Shelby Runge, Peter Samuels, Sabrina Smith, Stacy Thomas
Kinesiology Student Research
The study is intended to show if music can affect one’s rate of perceived exertion (RPE) using heart rate (HR) as a validity measure while exercising. The hypothesis is the effect will be positive with the use of music thus encouraging more people to exercise.

The Effect Of Dynamic Stretching On Exercise Performance, Nkechi Offor
Kinesiology Student Research
Dynamic stretching uses speed of movement, momentum and active muscular effort to bring about a stretch. It is similar to ballistic stretching except that it avoids bouncing motions and tends to incorporate more sports-specific movements. Researches show that dynamic stretching tends to have more advantages as compared to static stretching (stretching muscles while the body is at rest). Studies show that static stretching techniques do little to increase flexibility or reduce injury when performed before a workout; they also show that static stretches tend to have a detrimental effect on explosive movements and strength output as compared to dynamic stretching.
The Effects Of Caffeine On Physical Performance And Preceived Exertion In Caffeine Users And Non-Caffeine Users During Resistance Training, Andre Wilson, Carlin Johnston, Cecilia Acuna, Cliff Gardner, Eryka Aghedo, Gemina Genuzio
The Effects Of Caffeine On Physical Performance And Preceived Exertion In Caffeine Users And Non-Caffeine Users During Resistance Training, Andre Wilson, Carlin Johnston, Cecilia Acuna, Cliff Gardner, Eryka Aghedo, Gemina Genuzio
Kinesiology Student Research
Caffeine has been used as a supplement primarily for aerobic exercise to keep athletes focused. There has been little research on the effects of caffeine during anaerobic training. The research found on the effects of caffeine on aerobic training mostly have positive results, therefore it is important to see whether or not caffeine would have the same positive effects during anaerobic training.

Kinesiology Student Research
There has been a recent rise in vegetarian athletes around the world. Very few studies have been performed on vegetarian diets and maximal oxygen uptake.
